While I was looking for music for my Daily Digital Download today, this new song by Josh Turner just jumped out at me. The very first line of the song is; "I wanna drive until my cell phone runs out of range and every bar is gone"

2010 Country Comes Home

Josh Turner has released his new single, 'Lay Low,' from his upcoming new album. The tune, written by Ross Copperman, Tony Martin and Mark Nesler, was one the country crooner knew he wanted to record the first time he heard it.
Congratulations are in order for Josh Turner! The 'Long Black Train' singer and his wife are expecting even more blue in their Tennessee home. It's been announced that the couple is expecting yet another son this fall.
Josh Turner made a dream come true for a very special young man on Tuesday night (May 28). The bass-voiced singer invited a young musician with autism to join him onstage at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville to perform his signature hit, 'Long Black Train.'
Some country singers can sing the phone book and make it sound good, but when Josh Turner sings the 'Find Me a Baby' lyrics -- his brand new single -- it pulls on the heartstrings of the listener like no other. Turner penned the tune with his long-time record producer, Frank Rogers, when the two began work on the singer's latest studio album, 'Punching Bag.'
Call it hokey if you want, but try not to smile while listening to Josh Turner's new song 'Find Me a Baby.' The second single from 'Punching Bag' is more fun than anything of his since 'Why Don't We Just Dance' from 2009. Turner exemplifies everything one hopes marriage will be.
